“ Good views but turn the heating down please. ”

This is a good hostel, with some great views and nice communal areas. The staff were nice and friendly. I did find it way too warm though. The kitchen is a bit small too. Overall, I was pretty happy with the place though.

They scheduled all my busses and excursions. Same price as the actual companies but easy to pay all at once. I had to change things on the go and they handled that no problem with an email. Cool staff. Great vibe. Clean and cosy. Close to down town. Great view of the lake and town.

Very welcoming, with good Internet and underfloor heating! Breakfast is great and there is a well equipped kitchen for all other meals. The restaurant around the corner does amazing lamb dishes. When in Patagonia!

Really beautiful, lofty but natural place. Professional crew, clean rooms and sanitary. A bit more expensive than other hostels in town & a bit furtther away, but it's worth it. Enjoy!

“ Great Asado!! ”

by cassieweller (24 reviews) Newcastle , Australia

We turned up with no booking and was kindly given the loft to sleep for the first night. This hostel is a little walk from town, but its warm, and they have a great all you can eat bbq for 70 pesos. There is a beautiful view at sunset, perfect with wine and cheese, the wooden framing gave it a country feel and the staff were extremely friendly, It felt like a home, not a hostel...

How´s the serenity, The sunset from our hostel.

Outstanding

Travel Blogs from El Calafate

It was a five hour bus from Puerto Natales to the Perito Moreno Glacier. I had to book a tour to save time because the local buses did not fit with my schedule. I had to cross immigration and come back into Argentina. I am starting to get real confused at where I am now. I have switched countries three times in last week and will do four more times …
